On today’s show we talk with Charles Jones, Founder of Lucid Mood, about the trend of “mood” inducing products.

Today we tackle questions like…

Is this for real? Exactly how to do mood inducing products work?
Are consumers really interested in “side effect free” cannabis? Do they have a hard time understanding what that could feel like?
How have you tested the efficacy of your product? i.e. How do you know it is working?
Who is your target market and how did you arrive at this conclusion?
How do you see this new category growing going forward?

Would you say your product is positioned as a wellness product or as a vice or both? Why?
As a producer, have you made any mistakes our listeners can learn from?
